iPhone 14 Pro battery draining quickly

Totally. I haven't even upgraded to ios17 but there was a stark contrast about a month ago as well for my 14pro. Didn't change any settings, all the sudden went from end of day battery being like 20-30% still to now it's dead for sure if I don't charge it in the day. I won't touch it for hours at my desk and it loses 20% plus just sitting there. Very annoying... No always on screen or anything too.

The same thing is happening to me with my iPhone pro max 14, but I also bought a brand new iPad Pro, the newest one, this year and it’s also needing to be charged way more frequently than my older one. Something is seriously wrong with whatever batteries they are using for new devices. I’ve been an Apple user for decades and it’s just gotten crummier and crummier.

Purchased this Smart iPhone 14 Pro to meet the demands of today's smart technology! Recently after updating, battery life drops to 50% in hours. Yes, I've walked through all suggestions to save battery life. Came to site for a remedy, see I'm not alone! Please advise.

P.S. Noticed after 17.2.1 update, may of been update before?

Guys, it's time to ask us all if Apple takes care of its customers or not, I'm really tired of having the usual problems with batteries after every update, things that with other serious manufacturers don't happen. Listen, I live and work in Shanghai, any Chinese brand Xiaomi, Huawei, Vivo, etc.. guarantees two days of battery, there is no such thing that one of them lasts than 1 full day 24h, they do not heat up, they do not have simply any problems. And they cost less than half, if not a quarter. It is ridiculous that Apple produces products with constant problems, my own m2 MacAir has problems with automatic screen illumination.

Iphone 14, one year old...Just want to chime in that fully charged battery seems to be going down quickly. I would be able to charge and three days later would still have quite a bit of charged capacity. Noticed this after last update to IOS 17.2.1.

I'm glad I have a lot of company. I have an iPhone 14 Pro Max and since iOS 17 the battery life is dropping like a lead weight. I can barely get through the day on one charge and I don't use the phone that much. I didn't have this issue previously.

I am facing the same issue. It’s been less than 10 months and my battery life is already 90%. I have had several discussions with Apple team but as usual Apple never accepts their mistakes. I can prove technically that it’s Apple IOs that’s causing heating up, quick draining of battery and reducing battery life. Not sure if it’s technical problem or done on purpose so that people change phones sooner. I have been Apple phone user for 15 years and nothing much has changed in my usage for the battery to drain so fast.

The fact is Apple products are going bad to worst. I am seeing that with my MacBook Pro as well.

Hope Apple realises where they are heading

I don't know why but ever since the latest update for the iPhone 14+ my battery will not stay charged longer than like 30 minutes and then it's right back to being dead and I don't even use my phone while it's on the charger but when I take it off the charger like I said, it's off the charger maybe 30 minutes and it's completely dead again like this is ridiculous. I didn't pay all this money for a phone that is gonna die. Like every 30 minutes like right now I'm out and about and my phones dying. It's at 6% and I'm nowhere around to charger and I'm not even close to my home

Same here. I’ve noticed the battery capacity will quickly change too. From 100% to 87% within a few minutes then 67 then 10% and then it hard crashes.

start it up again and it may show 10% or even as much as 57%. I think ios 17 seems related. Really sucks. I need a reliable phone and now my favorite fruit company is making me look at a google phone😒

Same here, my 14 Pro Max’s battery health dropped from 100% to 87% in 11 months, what Apple support advised me was to turn off Always-on display and background app refresh features, which they advertised as top features!

I can't believe, almost 1 year later from having the iPhone 14 Pro the battery capacity was at 98% Since December 2023 it is draining rapidly and nonstop. What is going on? I started taking print screens on 6 January with 96%, 12 January 95%, now today 19 January 94%. It is dying and I am seeing it all! What quality is this???

Same here. Also, same happened with my old phone which was the iPhone 7 that I had forever but after like 4 years not a few months! When I called about my iPhone 7 battery I was told there had been a recall and Verizon replaced batteries for free, but I was too late. That’s the best part about Verizon… They never tell you anything and then time runs out and they say “too bad, so sad”. I want to switch carriers and will do so as soon as a better one becomes available in my area.

If it’s so then they are doing a very bad job.

I replaced my iPhone 10s because the battery couldn't last all day. Only to spend €1350 on a model that doesn't hold up either. It was better to have kept what I had and saved the money.

Im going to sell it and change to Samsung 24 Ultra.

I have an iPhone 14 Pro and I have had the same issue. My phone is only 3 months old and it was 100% health but when I checked it yesterday it was at 95 but when I checked it today it was at 94 and I only charge it at night that is it

At least the battery is charging... all this week at night I have had the phone on the charger all night and have woken up to it at less than 30% (iPhone 14 Pro with all the stupid tweaks done to preserve battery life while on and off the charger). I'm lucky enough to work from home, but my phone needs to live on a charger unless I want to watch the battery lose 20% of capacity from "100%" within an hour and the phone is left idle on the desk without any interaction at all.
